Chapter 775: Horizontal Insertion
The eldest brother and the crown prince glanced at the eighth master at the same time. The two of them frothed at the mouth, but the eighth master agreed without any excuse. So much so that it seemed a little ridiculous to them in this thought. It's just that this will be in the court, and both of them tacitly agreed that they didn't speak again.
"Fourth elder brother, do you have a different opinion?" Kangxi suddenly looked at the fourth master again.
****** what he did, the fourth master didn't speak today, and kept watching coldly from the side, feeling a little out of the way.
This will be named by Kangxi, and the fourth master doesn't seem to be surprised at all. He took a step forward and said unhurriedly: "Back to Emperor Ama, the retainers have no objections." The eighth brother is also a person who has been on the Mongolian battlefield, and Erchen thinks he can do it. But the son has a request. ”
"Say!" Kangxi nodded.
"Grain, grass, materials and other security matters, please also ask Huang Ama to hand over to his sons! Erchen will ensure that he will complete the task and will not make any mistakes! The fourth master said with a serious expression.
"Well, I'm going to leave this matter to you." Kangxi said: "You have always been careful, I am most relieved to leave this matter to you." ”
"Thank you Huang Ama for your trust." The fourth master bowed and said.
And so it was settled. Kangxi sent a total of three armies, and the eighth master led the Chinese army and led the overall situation. The fourth master is responsible for doing all kinds of security work in the capital. And the eldest brother and the prince who took the initiative to fight at the beginning had nothing to do.
After the next court, everyone walked outside the Qianqing Palace together, and the eighth master looked at the fourth master in front of him, and couldn't help but shout, "Fourth brother!" ”
The fourth master stopped and turned around, and saw that the prince and the eldest brother were also watching him from behind. Seeing the eighth master coming over, he made a look.
The eighth master understood it at once. He knew that this was not the place to speak, so he immediately said, "Fourth brother, you wait, I have something to ask you for advice!" ”
"If the eighth brother has anything, just say it, let's discuss it together." The fourth master said.
Hearing that the two were going to discuss business, the eldest brother and the prince came over, and the eighth master and the fourth master went out of the palace together. The two of them talked on the way home.
"Fourth brother, thank you for today." The eighth master gave up his hand, with a sincere face.
"Why did the eighth brother say this?" The fourth master looked like he didn't understand.
The eighth master smiled and said, "The fourth brother took the initiative to ask for help in the court today, isn't he afraid that the errand will be robbed by the eldest brother or the prince, which will affect my performance on the battlefield?" ”
Originally, the eldest brother and the prince were fighting, but he inserted a pole sideways, and he was stunned to take the matter of going to war on himself. Losing this opportunity to make meritorious contributions, the eldest brother and the crown prince will definitely not miss the deployment of grain, grass and armaments. In this way, they can also do tricks and feet from it, so that he can be restrained on the battlefield, and he cannot easily make meritorious deeds or even lose the battle!
And the fourth master took the initiative to ask for help, which just solved his worries.
The fourth master was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Eighth brother, I didn't think about it so much. At that time, I thought that since Huang Ama asked me, I can't say anything if I don't show a positive attitude. But you have already been decided to go to the battlefield, and I can't fight, so I can only do the allocation of grain and grass. ”
"Fourth brother just because of this?" The eighth master was a little unconvinced.
"Naturally, it's just because of this. I didn't expect Huang Ama to ask at all, this was all in a hurry. The fourth master said.
Although the eighth master felt some doubts in his heart, the fourth master denied it, and he was not good at asking, so he said: "Anyway, with the fourth brother in the rear, I am more down-to-earth." I still want to thank the fourth brother. ”
"If you thank me for this, then I will take it." The fourth master nodded with a smile.
The two went back to their respective homes, and the eighth master went directly to Yile Garden. He's going to the battlefield, and I don't know how long it will take. If it goes well, two or three months. If it doesn't go well, you won't be able to go back to the New Year. He always has to talk to Mao Tongtong, and the affairs in the house must also be arranged.
And when the fourth master returned home, he went directly into the study.
He did it on purpose in the court today. Even if Kangxi didn't ask him what he said, he was ready to stand up and take the initiative to ask for help.
But he is not only for the eighth master, but also for the prince!
Today, it is obvious that Kangxi is using the eighth master as a chess piece. When the eldest brother and the prince were arguing, it was not appropriate to send anyone, so he pulled the eighth master out. In this way, the eldest brother and the prince don't have to fight anymore, and all the contradictions will be transferred to the eighth master together.
He actually doesn't like Kangxi's use of family affection to achieve his goals. But as a son of man, he has no way to resist now, and can only try to make things not go so badly.
If he doesn't stand up, it will be like what the eighth master said, causing the prince and the eldest brother to fight again. No matter who grabs the errand of logistics support, they will pass on the regret of not being able to go to the battlefield to the eighth master.
Although they may not be as big as the eighth master said. But it will be somewhat embarrassing for the eighth master. Even if it doesn't affect the final battle, it's a bad thing.
And if he takes over this errand, he can avoid the further intensification of the contradiction, and lest the prince do something unreliable, and then Kangxi will make a note in his heart.
In this life, he didn't want to be the emperor, so he wanted to take the crown prince to the throne. As long as the prince's position has been stable, in the last years of Kangxi, their brothers will not fight for their heads like in the previous life, and even lose their lives.
It's just that he didn't expect that the eighth master would understand the meaning so quickly.
"It's such a nimble mind." The fourth master couldn't help but praise silently. It's no wonder that the old eight schemes in the previous life are endless. This kind of brain is really easy to use.
The eighth master, who was praised by the fourth master, will be criticized in Mao Tongtong's house!
"I don't know how to push? How long have you been sick? If you are hungry and full on the battlefield, can your stomach stand it? You are just showing weakness in front of the emperor and being coquettish, what's wrong? I really think I'm iron! If something happens to you, what will you do with me and Tuan Tuan? Mao Tongtong nagged angrily, raised his eyes and saw that the eighth master was still laughing, and became more and more angry and depressed: "The master is still laughing!" Isn't that funny? Do you know I'm going to be worried? ”
"I know! You know! The eighth master grabbed Mao Tongtong's hand and said softly: "Don't worry, Tongtong, the master will take care of himself." Guarantee that all the beards and tails will come back, and promise not to worry Tongtong, okay? ”
"Ye should be coaxing a child!" Mao Tongtong rolled his eyes and threw them to the eighth master, "Is it fun to go to the battlefield?" The sword has no eyes, who dares to guarantee that he will be fine? There is no sincerity at all in this promise! ”
"Then how can Tongtong not be angry with his master?" The eighth master asked flatteringly.
"It's late! Already angry! Mao Tongtong pursed his mouth, looking like I won't forgive you.
